Without reading all 7 pages, I would just say No, period. A seller has every right no matter what their reasons are, to ask what ever they want. A buyer has every right to say no. Try taking an old comic into a 7-11 and offer to trade it for a carton of milk. Ultimately, that will determine it’s true value…

Here’s mine. I got it a LONG time ago. I bought it because 1.) It was a Giant, 2.) It was a Crime book, 3.) It had a purty dame on the cover and 4.) It was probably cheap. In the days that if it wasn’t a GA Timely, DC, an EC or a Barks book, it had very little interest. In these days, $50-75. bought a large stack of interesting books. Nobody knew who Matt Baker was. Just dumb luck I guess.

Cool! Never have owned the binders or pencil cases.

Yes. My Mr Gasser is a factory sealed bottom box. I hope he’s in there…

Yes, 2 separate albums. I photographed both sides..

Just read that my single high value pulp has been shipped. Grade is about what I expected. Can’t wait to see it… The lower value ones are still in grading. Will post when they arrive. Is it possible to see the CGC scan?

A great Woody cover! I got mine MANY years ago on my honeymoon. Was in San Francisco and just bumped into it in a used book store. Still have it.

Love those especially in black. I wonder what they were supposed to be used for? Mine is only a few inches thick. I assume there are 4 in the set. I’ve had mine like forever and haven’t seen another other than these.

Great score Beau! Reminds me of all the “love books” I left in dollar boxes under the tables in the early ‘70’s. I was grabbing as many PCH books from those boxes instead…

Action # 1 is about as common to CC as Hulk 181.

Amazing what eventually happed to Bob Wood. One of so many strange stories in the history of comics creators…

Adam is probably the best seller on EBay. He gets some astounding results. And not every collector goes the big auction house buying route. The perception is you might have a better chance of getting “lucky” on the Bay.

Picked this up at the flea market yesterday. It is a free monthly magazine with the goings on in the local antique world. Also auction results nationally on a variety of antiques. The cover just screamed out at me. I just had to know. Interesting article but what was of biggest interest to me was the full page article on PCH books. I have never heard of this collector or this auction house. Apparently, this auction happened beginning of Jan. Frankly, I never like seeing articles like this in the hands of “civilians”. Gives everyone the wrong idea. Sure makes it tougher on us flea market scroungers… Anybody here ever visit this library? Looks like the Sistine Chapel of comics.

I know “nobody cares about these” but when I run into them in this shape for a couple of bucks, I just can’t leave them…

Me neither. Just liked the cover and price. How often does one find cool magazines this old? The lady had a bunch of 1930’s movie mags as well. All photo covers of pretty much unknown stars. Thought about them but I just didn’t know what I would do with them.

Now that’s quite the pickup! Congrats!

Flea market pickup today. Not really a pulp but mostly fiction stories. The cover and age just made me grab it.

Got this one in today. Down to 3 left. Buy them when you find them. Overstreet lists as scarce and I concur. Can’t remember seeing a copy for sale in many years. Maybe in one of the big auction companies, but I rarely look there. Someone found a few coverless ones that got snatched up quick. This is the type of book I go to conventions for but never see. And what a cover. Dare I say “classic”? I know Feldstein did very few romance covers. But some incredible ones. I won’t post in the Romance thread as I don’t want to make all those Atlas covers look bad…

Got that one for Christmas when I was a kid. Was my pride and joy. Rode it to bits along with my Sting Ray Lemon Peeler bike...

Yeah, I got him to sign at at the Hot Rod Hootenanny at the Moon Records parking lot show. My buddy got an old toilet seat painted with a Rat Fink airbrushed treatment.

These are all Marx Nutty Mads. The second row are the scarcer third series.

Actually the Tony Hawk and 1970's era boards are in the most demand out here.

Only one I've ever seen.
